fluorescent bulbs + x10

[pshaw@xxxxxxxxx]

i've recently put some 100w fluorescent bulbs in my bedside lamps and
switched the x10 'lamp' module to a 'machinery' module ...and i can
turn the lamps off with the remote - then they flicker for a few
minutes and then turn on again! i have other lamps around the house
where this is not a problem.  i do have an inexpensive switch
mechanism in the lamps (i took some vases and made them into lamps)
...could that be the problem?
